Stopped in to Jenny’s Kitchen after being recommended by a coworker and was delighted to try a savory egg scallion crepe roll and pork & chive pancake! The crepe had a good combination of soft and crunchy elements and was very tasty. The pork and chive pancake had a lot of pork and was quite juicy.
I decided to ask to get both heated up and ate outside at a table that they have there. Staff were super friendly helping me make my selections, letting me know the food was hot, including utensils, offering me a cup of water, etc. The small store front gets a steady stream of business and had a line the whole time I was there on a Saturday afternoon. For smaller purchases, it seems like they prefer cash.

⭐ 1/5 - This place is a nightmare. Filthy environment, found hair in my bun disgusting hygiene. Prices keep skyrocketing, but quality is mediocre at best. They only take cash, probably dodging taxes, yet nothing improves. Total rip-off steer clear and don't waste your money.

The bao buns appear to be machine-made and previously frozen, rather than handmade as one might expect for the price. Unfortunately, the quality didn’t meet expectations. I won’t be buying them again. If I want to buy machine made frozen buns, I can go to a grocery store and buy them at half the price, and they taste exactly the same.

I got food from the truck so the Fairwood food truck event. Service was extremely slow. The cabbage was good. The peas and rice with oxtail gravy were pretty good. The gravy was a little thick. However the biggest complaint was the lack of oxtails. There were None in the sauce. Very disappointing especially for $26.

I'd give this place zero stars if I could. They charge extraordinarily high prices for substandard food. I ordered a braised fish dish and when I took a bite the fish tasted like it had gone bad. When I went back to complain the cashier denied that the fish had spoiled and insisted that they only serve fresh seafood. Either they don't taste their own food or they're a disreputable business willing to sell rotting food to make a quick buck. Everyone knows the smell of near-rotting fish and I almost threw up eating it. The cashier offered to exchange the fish for a random dish of her own choice then warned me that she was being overly generous and that this replacement for rotting food will never happen again (of course, she didn't bother to ask if I had any allergies before handing me whatever she picked). Luckily, I wasn't allergic to any of the ingredients. Unfortunately, the cooking oil tasted like it hasn't been changed in a month (old and rancid), so I ended up throwing out the entire box of food.
I remember when this place had different owners. There were fewer options but it was always fresh and decent quality. The new management is pushy, rude, marks up prices by 1000%, and sells rotten food.
The interior of this restaurant now looks dingy and dirty and my plastic bag had a funky smell. I doubt if this place could pass any kind of unannounced Department of Health food safety inspection. Eat at your own risk!
Lots of ready to go bento dishes, pancakes, buns, dumplings, vegetables and pastries. $20 minimum for credit card.

I bought the Thousand Layer Pancake twice and the inside was undercooked. Moreover, the braised kelp knots were not cooked and were hard. I cooked it again before I could eat it. What is available for purchase is all ready to eat.

Fantastic tasting food and really warm, fast service. I LOVE this gem. Everything from fresh product to very authentic Chinese steam and seared buns to Chinese baked goods to prepared dishes to refrigerated goodies.
